GENE TECHNOLOGY ACT 2000 - SECT 39

Simplified outline

    The following is a simplified outline of this Part:

This Part provides a licensing system under which a person can apply to the Regulator for a licence authorising dealings with GMOs.

This Part sets out the processes to be followed by the Regulator in relation to applications involving 2 kinds of dealings:

  (a)   those that involve the intentional release of a GMO into the environment; and

  (b)   those that do not involve the intentional release of a GMO into the environment.

A licence can cover dealings by persons other than the licence holder. The licence holder is required to inform such persons of any conditions of the licence that apply to them.
